Why was it okay to release the original NES Turtles game but none of the others? I was so hoping for Turtles in Time at some point. It's been so long I doubt We'll ever seen anymore. What happened?

...The NES is the only one? I kinda stopped caring about the VC since it has been dying lately...but STILL no TMNT arcade version?! Sheesh!...And I miss the SNES ones too.

Turtles in Time got remade, so probably something related to that as to why no VC appearance. Maybe the one on VC just didn't sell at all.

I remember seeing it on the top games list, though...

I heard about that turtles in time remake but it aparently isn't as good as the Snes version. I've never played much of the Arcade game so I don't know about that one. I did buy the original NES game on VC but only for the nostalgia. Even though it's not so great I still have a weird attachment to it. I played the heck out of it as a kid.

I think its a whole licensing issue as aways. Konami made the TMNT games on the NES and SNES now the TMNT license is held by Ubisoft, which did the remake of TMNT in Time. Also the the owners of TMNT has switched hands now too. A while ago Nickelodeon bought the TMNT from the creators hence why they were able to do the TMNT Forever movie, so that maybe a problem too.

So in other words I think that it will cost too much to put out and it would cost alot more than regular NES/SNES games. Look at the fact that TMNT on NES cost 600 points as opposed to 500 for every other NES game.

@Link79: Yeah your right the remake is ok but not as good as the SNES version.

I've already got both arcade games, albeit with altered music, on the GC TMNT games (only reason to get the 2nd and 3rd ones, in my opinion). The one I really want is TMNT 3 for NES.

Ash: Professor Oak, how's your Bulbasaur?
Prof. Oak: Oh, it only hurts when I sit.

Prof. Oak: It's only Chansey if Krabby won't let go. Bye, now.
Ash: I don't think I'm going to call him anymore.

I'd love to have TMNT II: The Arcade game for the NES and the actual Arcade version for the VC Arcade. And of course TMNT IV....But ya, what's the deal!? They haven't even released II yet...

Like I said, they're unlockable in TMNT2 and TMNT3 for GameCube. They just have altered music.
